Leaving London
Most of Greater London is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone (ULEZ), and central London has the Congestion Charge on weekdays. Any charges that apply to our vehicles are included in your quote.
Many London streets have permit parking or red routes. If there is no space outside, we can advise on a parking suspension from your borough council, which usually needs about two weeks' notice.
If you are leaving a flat, check with your managing agent about lift bookings, loading bay times and any rules on moving hours.
